I'v been with this band of misfits for 5 years now, our share of ups and downs comings and goings. Normally I get sad when someone I'v known for a long time tells me that were never going to play ff together again, but now its like 3 ppl are leaving and 3-5 are taking a break. Its overwhelming! I know its retarded to get worked up about a video game but THS is a family (I prob spend more time with you guys then I do with anyone IRL)

anyway its super emo time I'm super sad now

also you ppl that are leaving should be training a newb to take your place

My thoughts on everyone leaving are mixed. While I'm going to miss seeing my friends on this game that I've gotten to know over the years, I also understand this is a needed step for people that need to leave. Everyone on here is capable of making a good decision on when it's necessary to take a break from the game, and when it's necessary to step away from it.

Sometimes all you need is a break, whether it be for a week, two weeks, or six months to get everything in your life organized and back to where it needs to be to allow yourself to put aside a few hours each week for this game. A little bit agao I needed one of these and was gone for 5-6 weeks until I was ready to return. If you know that you just don't enjoy playing this game anymore, you have a real life situation that demands you not be committed to a video game, or the time spent on it vs. the time played can't justify the monthly fee... it's probably time to leave Vana'diel.

I'm going to miss my friends, but anyone that does decide to go has my full and 100% support. While I'll miss the Elvaan, Taru, etc. character on my screen, I care about the person behind it more.

And the fun ones like me, who quit but never... quite... leave.

Just remember: we've never actually quit THS, we're just waiting for you in the next game.

Nothx. A grind game is a grind game is a grind game, plain and simple. I've gotten past paying someone else so I can work at a job. There isn't enough inherent fun in the game itself for me to come back.

I'm still waiting on you guys to take me up on my offer of untold riches and play some EVE. Or Warhammer to come out.

I know my goodbyes don't really mean much and I'm pretty sure most of you don't even remember me lol. Just it's all of your guys that have gotten me to were I am in this game because this was one of my first ls's. Makes me really sad to see you guys go. I'm really greatful for what you have all done for me. I really hope no one else is thinking of leaveing (Again, a bit late on posting lol)_________________Sigs Take Up to Much Space =P
